See my reply to Kimbo. You're right, there's isn't a point to GIS, but it's different.

Ghostrider always had some kind of crazy/ stupid challenge. "Do the Uppsala run in 30 minutes" or whatever. Looking back, GIS never really had a point either, but the difference is that those guys were genuinely good drivers driving like nutjobs on public roads VERY LATE AT NIGHT as opposed to during the daylight…

How has no one done a turbo 4-rotor in one of these?

I guess this is kind of in the tradition of Ghostrider/ getaway in Stockholm, but at least they had a point. this guy is just driving like a douche.

Wow, that focus looks incredible. FWD? All interest lost. Why does Ford keep insisting on building hot Foci (even concepts, like this one) that are FWD? Why not go steal a bunch of STI and EVO sales by using an AWD drivetrain?

Yeah that occurred to me later. :-/ Still valid. Kinda.

BMW 7 series from E38 to E65. it went from one of the most handsome, subtly desirable luxury cars in the world to a bulbous, squash-trunked douchemobile. Its design language is something that the 7-series has yet to fully recover from.

So different cars with different engines get different MPG figures. Gotcha.

So presumably this car is going to cost ~100k. The performance suspension and LSD are extras at that price? WTF is the point of that? The standard black edition is now going to be pretty awful to drive then, especially with those 255s.

Not strictly X-games related (but one of those if it can happen there, it can happen here, things) but Jeremy Lusk died at a red bull event a few years ago. Very much the same kind of thing.

It's not exactly squirrely if they mean to do it.

"Mitsubishi dealers are the mattress salespeople of the car world." This is honestly one of the best things I've ever read in any car review.

The Volvo Amazon!

Momo monte carlo. The prototypical racing wheel.

Dumb red accents and even dumber ridiculous steering wheel? Integrale ain't care. NP.

That's true. Subcultures even!

Yeah, but what other message would you give to the enemy that wants to kill you than "I am your death come a callin'"? Fear is a tool like any other in a soldier's pack. Sure, it's inappropriate when you don't want to do that, so you don't wear it then. you wear it when you're kicking in doors and killing people, not…

No, sure, they're totally not about killing the enemy at all.

That is literally the oath they take, and the express purpose of the armed forces. Everything else is interpretation and/ or individual idiocy.

Wow, fucking THANK YOU.
